A rectangle has a length five more than twice the width. If the perimeter is 22 units find the width and length

Set the following: Length = L    Width = W

The length is twice the width:    L = 2*W     or:  W = L/2

Perimeter: P = 60ft = 2*L + 2*W

Substituting L for W in the perimeter equation gives:

P = 60ft = 2*L + 2*(L/2) = 2*L + L = 3L

L = 60ft/3 = 20ft    W=L/2=20ft/2=10ft

Verify result:  Perimeter= P = 60ft = 2L + 2W = 2*20ft +2*10ft = 40ft+20ft = 60ft

The area of the rectangular is: Area = A = Length*Width = L*W = 20ft*10ft = 200 (ft)^2

Help! <br> Which expression is equivalent? <br> On edge
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer: Choice B

x^{1/8}y^{8}

======================================================

Explanation:

The two rules we use are

(a*b)^c = a^c*b^c

(a^b)^c = a^{b*c}

When applying the first rule to the expression your teacher gave you, we can say that:

\left(x^{1/4}y^{16}\right)^{1/2} = \left(x^{1/4}\right)^{1/2}*\left(y^{16}\right)^{1/2}

Then applying the second rule lets us say

\left(x^{1/4}\right)^{1/2}*\left(y^{16}\right)^{1/2} = x^{1/4*1/2}*y^{16*1/2} = x^{1/8}y^{8}

Therefore,

\left(x^{1/4}y^{16}\right)^{1/2}  = x^{1/8}y^{8}

-------------

In short, we just multiplied each exponent inside by the outer exponent 1/2.

So that explains why the exponents go from {1/4,16} to {1/8,8} for x and y in that exact order.

Katrina goes to Road Runner after school and purchases a soda for 1.50, chips for 3.50 and a candy bat for 0.50 An additional 8%
Nutka1998 [239]

<u>Answer:</u>

Sale tax paid by Katrina is 0.44 units of currency and total amount paid is 5.94 unit of currency.

<u> Solution:</u>

Given that Katrina goes to road runner after school and purchase following three products

A soda for 1.50  

Chips for 3.50

Candy for 0.50

Also she pays 8% sales tax.

Need to determine amount paid in sales tax and total amount paid by Katrina.

lets first calculate amount she paid without taxes.  

Total paid amount without taxes = 1.50 + 3.50 + 0.50 = 5.50

As she paid 8% sale tax , that is 8 % of 5.50

so sale tax paid = \frac{8}{100} \times 5.50 = 0.44

<em>Total amount paid = Total amount paid without taxes + tax paid </em>

= 5.50 + 0.44 = 5.94

Hence sale tax paid by Katrina is 0.44 units of currency and total amount paid is 5.94 unit of currency.
